Windows Drivers Template Library

WDTL is a library helping to write kernel drivers for Windows (WDM and NT Kernel drivers). Although WDTL may not be the 'ideal' solution for all cases, it helpful to start write driver from scratch and forget about terrible M$ suggestions for writing drivers (those, who are concatenate strings with RtlXXXUnicodeString understand me).

WDTL is a free library licensed under GNU LGPL.

Goals

• maximum portability to support all Windows family systems.
